Wearing Black Stars jersey one of the most exciting moments in my career – Ebenezer Annan

Published on: 28 March 2024

Novi Pazar defender Ebenezer Annan has described wearing the Black Stars jersey to make his Ghana debut as one of the most exciting moments in his career.

The 21-year-old, currently on loan at the Serb top-flight club from Serie A's Bologna, was a late inclusion in Otto Addo's squad for the two friendly matches against Uganda and Nigeria.

Annan made a second-half appearance in the 2-1 loss to Nigeria and was subsequently given a starting position in the 2-2 draw against Nigeria.

Assessing his performance in the two games, he said head coach Otto Addo shared some good feedback with him after the games.

“I played as a left wing-back against Nigeria. I pushed forward when we had possession and ran back when we lost the ball. I believe I did my best.

“The coach had some encouraging words for me after the game. Putting on the national jersey is one of the exciting moments in my career.”
